Ok I'm like 99% of everyone else --I can't afford 3 of everything in 4 diff' colors , so I'd like some opinions on some stuff before I order.

1--New Mepps with minnow trailer
2 --Curly Sue vs the Bulldawg ? Catching as many as the old standby ?
3--rj lures Esox series minnows ---
4- dunwright pike's --are they catching fish or fishermen ? they sure look good.
5 Rulsur bucktail --nice lookin body, good colors .

Thanks MD

Not that I've caught any muskys this year on Bulldawgs or Suzy's, but I have given them equal time this year. Both got pretty much the same number of follows, and Pike. Both have their time and place (sorry Brad, I know you are married to my wife's cousin, but fact is fact).

Dunrite pikes look awesome in the water, but I have not raised one on it this year.

Here is what does work (although one is from late last season), Gerry Carrol's tails (buck, mariboo, and flashaboo), and Shane W's Timberwolf. These guys make some awsome stuff, and their quality of work is top-notch.

Just got some Suzi Suckers, they look great. I'm absolutely certain I'll catch fish on them.

after winning one in a raffle, i've been throwing the new Mepp's "Sassy Shad" a bit this year. i really like it, easy to burn with the willow blade, and the tail has a nice action. i'm sure it'll produce with more time on the water and i'll probably buy one or two more to expand my color options. (and with Mepp's bucktails split-ring design you can always swap out blades and tails)
